Union Endorses Candidate that agrees with it the least

Yesterday, the SEIU, one of America’s strongest and most politically active labor unions, endorsed Hillary Clinton for president. Hmm.

The SEIU, which boasts 2 million members, is the union that has for several years now funded and helped organize the Fight For 15 movement, which advocates for a minimum wage of $15 per hour.

The officials there are playing like Debbie Wasserman Shultz plays.

The membership of SEIU, just like the people of the U.S., are not going to go along with the game.

This is actually very good news for Bernie and his message and the many people who dig it. Corruption and undemocratic ways - right there in front of all of us to fix it.
